Hasta La Ideas

There are probably two kinds of wine drinkers in the world: those who know everything about the age, composition, and other things that you need to know about the bottle you’re drinking; and those who just like the taste of the bottle they’re consuming. More often than not, I’m of the latter but sometimes I also like knowing how old the wine I’m drinking is.

If you’re just a casual wine drinker, you will probably appreciate this concept for your bottle. The Wine Stopper is a, well, wine stopper, that is designed to look like an analog clock. This is because it’s meant to be a symbol of the particular bottle of wine’s ageing process, even though it’s really just a design and not an actual indication of the age.

We all know that a bottle of wine changes flavors and aromas the longer it stays unopened. There is also a “perfect time” to open it and finish it off. This wine stopper is something you can use to fully experience the aging cycle of your wine, at least symbolically. It has a traditional analog dial that tells you the maturation date when the bottle can best be experienced.

We assume that the “clock” is manually placed on the aging date side and also the best taste “hour”, whether it’s for red wine, white wine, or sparkling wine. It’s an interesting way to know a bit more about your wine before drinking it all away.
